Summary - 154, HIGH STREET DY5 2AF
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Prominent High Street Victorian property — large renovation project with mixed-use potential.
Large multi-floor footprint across two adjoining Victorian shopfronts
No upward chain — offered freehold, cash buyers preferred for renovation
Requires full refurbishment throughout; likely insulation and service upgrades
Former commercial frontage; suitable for mixed-use or conversion projects
Small plot with only a covered rear area; no significant garden or external space
Solid brick construction (1900–1929) — insulation likely required (assumed)
Above-average local crime; area classified as ageing industrious workers
Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband; strong local amenities and transport
A rare development opportunity on Quarry Bank High Street, offered chain free and with generous overall floor area across multiple levels. The pair of adjoining Victorian red-brick shopfronts includes spacious rooms, loft spaces and a workshop/utility area — a flexible canvas for conversion back to commercial use, a mixed-use scheme or residential refurbishment.
The property needs full renovation throughout: fixtures, finishes, services and likely insulation upgrades to solid brick walls. Main heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, and the building benefits from double glazing (install date unknown). Cash buyers or those able to fund renovation quickly will be best placed to act.
Location is a clear strength: prominent High Street position with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, frequent public transport and a wide range of local amenities and schools nearby. There is no significant private garden — outdoor space is limited to a covered rear area and small courtyard.
Be clear about the risks and costs: the property sits in an area with above-average crime and average deprivation, and the building is dated (c.1900–1929) with assumed solid brick walls and no insulation. Buyers should allow budget for full refurbishment, possible structural and services upgrades, and verify freehold title and planning potential before committing.
